This fulfills a stupid promise I made years ago to write a song that was part Dave Frishberg, part Richard Thompson.

A totally sheltered and unable to cope middle-class white kid screws up really badly and is on the run. I don't think he'll make it. Do you?

It's based on a drawing a little girl drew (see also album cover).

I read Carla Zilbersmith's blog, carlamuses.blogspot.com, which inspired the song. She's rather inspiring herself.

this was one of the hardest to do, the 2nd half was great, but i hated the first half and was stressing with getting it to gel. so i scrapped it completely and started over. i think it was a wise decision.

A Bonus track for "Summer Twilight on Triton;" more of the same, but shorter.
